Riviera Rooms with a View

[Sandisw]

With the opening of the resort on Monday, someone suggested we start a thread to share views from the different rooms, including whether one could see any fireworks.

So, once you stay and check out, please post the room and view. I will attempt to keep a thread like the one for other resorts!

Great idea!! We aren’t staying until March but will contribute if we can.

 

[Sandisw]

Yes! I’ll be visiting Wednesday. I’m here at WDW but not there. It will be a great resource

 

[Frogman88]

Nice !! I’ll post my January trip pics

Saw these on Twitter. A view I’d wish to avoid. The views looking toward the gondola station as per the Dis 1 bed video look really nice.

Just a question... I don’t remember if I’ve seen these on the Dis or elsewhere, but I know some diagrams of other resorts exist with the view categories mapped out. Does anyone know where the info for these diagrams came from? Like, will Disney eventually release (in some way) a list of room numbers and views, or is this the kind of thing fans have to cobble together over time with threads like this one?

If I recall correctly those pics were taken from a hallway rather than a room.

 

[Sandisw]

Anyone have any pictures yet or room numbers with room category?

We were in 8540/42. It was a 2 bedroom lock-off, so a 1 bedroom and a studio. Preferred View. My husband has some pictures from the balcony that I will add later. We looked out over the "quiet" pool.

Thank you Sandi for doing this!! It really does help, even though we can only "request" a view.

I have pics but will post later. Quite pleased with a 7th floor standard view.

I don’t notice a room number, unless I am missing it.

Great! Once you check out, you can then include the room #

Thanks for starting this post.

We just checked out of room #8731 today. It was a 1-bedroom, standard view in the west wing. It had a direct view of Spaceship Earth.

Yes. Absolutely.

Would you chance booking SV again?

 

[Jack_Sparrow_NJ]

Would you chance booking SV again?

I would because we tend not to be in the room all that much. You can’t sit on the balcony so we wouldn’t be out there much anyway. I do have a PV booked for June but only because there wasn’t a SV available.

SV - 1br (lockoff)
8765 - east wing
The only request we made was high floor.
West wing is closer to the skyliner and has a better chance of Epcot fireworks; East Wing is easier to get to restaurants and has a decent chance of MK fireworks, and is a little closer to the bus stop.

if you’re in a tower studio, the only request I would make is high floor. Tower studios probably can see both Epcot and MK fireworks. And the lower floor tower studios will have pretty bad views because the ground there slopes up to the parking lot. So if you’re in a 1st floor tower studio (sounds like an oxymoron), you might have a view of a grassy hill.

Sorry these pics all seem to be posting upside down. ETA: can anyone help me with turning these pictures around? Original photos taken with iphone, I tried saving, rotating and saving under a new name (on a PC), and they're still upside down. Sorry!
